knitting too large for the pattern

[hyperactive]

Oh, by the way: with baby outfits you should not be too unhappy, when your stuff turns out a LITTLE big (this is too big, though). Babies grow and you should just roughly estimate their size. But too small is sad, if you have a particular baby to knit for.

Thank you all so much for your help. Looked at the label and now I see that I did buy a wool that is much too heavy.

well, no problem, really. Just set it aside and think up a new project for it.
The right yarn is EVERYTHING in knitting. So enjoy your serch for it!
